Hi.
First of all thank you for everything about XBMC!!!
Second.
I use 8.10 Atlantis beta 2 and would like FanArt to work in FileView DVDview not only in Libary mode.
Anyone know how to accomplish this?
I have searched the forum and only found this:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=36372&page=2
My problem with this is:
I do not find anything containing FanArt in myvideonav.xml and I do not find exactly where to paste the code submited above.
I tried 6 rows up from the end between:
And this:
The result was looking like this:
The result of this is that it opens FanArt in a window on the left side "over" the left navigations... I would like it to be in the background of the DVD icons... (it only worked with FANART when the movie-fanart.jpg was in the movies folder.)
I guess I just pasted the code in the wrong place in the file since I see the fanart but in the wrong place...
VERY GRATEFULL FOR ANY ASSISTANS!!!!
Tanx!!!

My problem with this is:
Quote: tried to read between the lines and figured out that MyVideoFiles.xml really meant MyVideo.xml.
Since I like xTV, I did it with this skin.
I was able to add the following lines into MyVideo.xml (right before the Video Label control) and it worked. No need to have any Video Library if the movie-fanart.jpg is available.
I have tested this with XBMCPC so there may be a dimension change need for the real thing...

Now to answer your question:
Quote:
quick question... does it only show the fanart in files mode after scanning to the library? (i'm still in the office and cant check right now.)
I wasn't sure so I went into Settings/Video and Cleaned the Library (before unchecking it)
Went back to the Movies section in my folder and the fanart still work so I assume, it reads it straight from the disk... which is what I wanted
Thanks for your help !
Now I can try to make it a special view that would work better but the proof of concept is here.
I do not find anything containing FanArt in myvideonav.xml and I do not find exactly where to paste the code submited above.
I tried 6 rows up from the end between:
Code:
<control type="image">
<posx>640</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>640</width>
<height>105</height>
<aspectratio align="right">keep</aspectratio>
<texture diffuse="Wide_Icon_Diffuse.png">$INFO[Container.TVshowThumb]</texture>
<visible>Container.Content(Seasons) | Container.Content(Episodes)</visible>
<include>Window_OpenClose_Animation</include> </control>
And this:
Code:
<control type="label">
<include>WindowTitleCommons</include>
<label>$LOCALIZE[9] - $LOCALIZE[20314]$INFO[Container.PluginName, - ]</label>
</control>
</controls>
</window>
The result was looking like this:
Code:
<control type="image">
<posx>640</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>640</width>
<height>105</height>
<aspectratio align="right">keep</aspectratio>
<texture diffuse="Wide_Icon_Diffuse.png">$INFO[Container.TVshowThumb]</texture>
<visible>Container.Content(Seasons) | Container.Content(Episodes)</visible>
<include>Window_OpenClose_Animation</include>
</control>
<!-- Frazze test -->
<control type="image">
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>480</width>
<height>400</height>
<visible>!IsEmpty(listitem.property(fanart_image)) </visible>
<animation effect="fade" end="0" time="200">WindowClose</animation>
<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200">VisibleChange</animation>
<texture>$INFO[listitem.property(fanart_image)]</texture>
</control>
<!-- Frazze test -->
<control type="label">
<include>WindowTitleCommons</include>
<label>$LOCALIZE[9] - $LOCALIZE[20314]$INFO[Container.PluginName, - ]</label>
